WASHINGTON (AP) — As it targets Hamas’ underground tunnels in Gaza,
Israel has relied on powerful 2,000-pound bombs provided by the United
States. But now those deliveries are on hold.

The U.S. is pausing a shipment of 1,800 of the bombs, as well as 1,700
500-pound bombs, U.S. officials said. The decision comes as Israel is
planning an assault on the southern Gaza city of Rafah in an attempt to
root out the final elements of Hamas.

With more than 1 million refugees sheltering in Rafah, U.S. officials
are concerned the bombs could inflict massive casualties. Human rights
groups have long said that Israel’s use of powerful bombs has caused the
indiscriminate killings of civilians.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told a Senate panel Wednesday that
smaller, more precise weapons are needed for a densely populated area
like Rafah.

Still, he made clear the decision wasn’t final.

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told
his Cabinet on Sunday that there had been a “dramatic drop” in U.S.
weapons deliveries for Israel's war effort in Gaza, doubling down on a
claim that the Biden administration has denied and underscoring the
growing strains between the two allies.

Netanyahu told his Cabinet that the drop had occurred four months ago,
without specifying which weapons, saying only that “certain items
arrived sporadically but the munitions at large remained behind."

The spat highlights how high tensions have surged between Israel and
Washington over the war in Gaza, particularly surrounding the Israeli
military's conduct in the beleaguered territory and the harm to civilian
life there. President Joe Biden has delayed delivering certain heavy
bombs since May over those concerns, but his administration fought back
last week against Netanyahu's charges that other shipments had also been
affected.

Nah. Bibi wants the big blockbuster bombs to complete his insane stupid
goal of Hamas' genocide. It's not the little stuff. He dreams of blowing
to bits thousands more innocent civilians to make "Israel safer."
So, let's hear it from the racist, religiously bigoted Far Right:

Big Bombs For Bibi!!

Bibi's gotta' have our free 2000-lb. and 500-pound bombs to get "the
job done."

He's crying and moaning our free bomb shipments must continue to
eradicate Hamas. He attempted to hide his main gripe with lesser
munitions not being delivered.

Israel needs to make its own munitions and military hardware to keep
its genocidal dreams alive.

WASHINGTON (AP) ? As it targets Hamas? underground tunnels in Gaza,
Hey Doc, have you ever wondered why Hamas needed all
those underground tunnels? Wouldn't it have been much
better if they'd spent that money to help their people
and turn Gaza into a tourist paradise instead of the
terrorist hellhole it became? Why do you support all
those tunnels? Do you even know why they build them?
Of course you don't. Silly me, look who I'm asking.

You know that's overkill, right?

They don't need 2,000 pound bombs. It's Fake News.

In Vietnam the B-52s dropped 750 & 500 pound bombs.

The 2,000 pound bombs are probably the deep penetrating bunker
busters developed for the Iraq war...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GBU-28

But this says that they're 4,000 pounds! So maybe they really
are withholding 2,000 pound bombs... but delivering 4,000
pound bunker busters.

That is how the evil in control works. They use literal
statements to lie. If they say that they're withholding 2,000
pound bombs then they mean it literally: They are NOT
withholding other types of bombs!

What they need is the GBU-28 cited above. They can plunge
deep underground before exploding, taking out bunkers and
tunnels.

Way fewer casualties if your bomb travels 50 to 150 feet under
underground, before exploding.

No. They need ground-penetrating weapons.

This is bullshit. They never ever told you the truth in the past,
they didn't start now.

Biden's owners are trying to play both sides.

Period.
